Abstract

Passage of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) was a significant milestone in congressional information policy legislation. However, the results were widely criticized in some circles as providing too much Power to certain stakeholder groups. This paper uses computerbased content analysis and a theoretical taxonomy of information policy values to analyze congressional hearing testimony. The results of document coding were then analyzed using a variety of statistical tools to map how different stakeholders framed issues in the debate and determine if congressional value statements about the legislation conformed more closely to certain stakeholders. Results of the analysis indicate that significant differences in the use of information policy terms occurred across stakeholders, and showed varying degrees of convergence between congressional or other stakeholders when framing information policy issues.

Abstract

This article details the public policy framework that establishes the legal foundation for requiring access to Web-based information resources for people with disabilities. Particular areas of focus include: the application of the fair use doctrine to an understanding of disability access to digital information; the application of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act to Web-based services; and the application of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act to Federal Web-based resources and the extent to which Section 508 may be applicable to states through linkage under the Assistive Technology Act.

Abstract

Explores some of the practical difficulties associated with the management information as a commodity, and sketches a framework in which to address the problem in the context of electronic publishing. The strategy is based on the integration of 2 groups of technologies, collectively refereed to as 'secure SGML' which merges the platform-independent data representation offered by the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) and related standards with the privacy and authentication functions offered by recent advances in key cryptography. This scheme allows implementation of a licensing strategy, thereby providing a means of addressing problematic copyright and public policy issues associated with digital media. Libraries can play a key role in the installation and maintenance of the infrastructure required to support new forms of information transaction

Abstract

The concept of intellectual property is fallacious, and danegrous as it permits ordinarily honest citizens to reproduce everything from software to musical scores without authorization or compensation to the copyright holder. Intellectual property rights are really property rights. There is a need to deal with the issues in which terminology is outstripping legal protection and how proprietary claims as such are under assault. In the context of the US National Information Infrastructure this means a greater clarification of fundamental issues, followed by policy guidelines that can be understood as universal in scope and fair in purpose. The US government must advance the cause of the widest possible access of information to its citizens, while at the same time protecting the sources of creative energies

Abstract

The proliferation of information in electronic format does not guarantee its accessibility. The fact that many Web sites are not accessible to large segments of the disabled community has created a "digital divide". The accessibility barriers are systemic. In recent years, there has been a growing body of significant laws and standards concerning Web accessibility that impact people with disabilities. Ways of breaking down these barriers to a fuller accessibility implementation do exist, including education to raise awareness of Web accessibility, nationwide policy and guidelines for accessibility, and Web-based applications and tools to facilitate Web accessibility, to name a few.

Abstract

In this global information age, accessing, disseminating, and controlling information is an increasingly important aspect of human life. Often, these interests are expressed in the language of human rights-for example, rights to expression, privacy, and intellectual property. As the discipline concerned with "facilitating the effective communication of desired information between human generator and human user" (Belkin, 1975, p. 22), library and information science (LIS) has a central role in facilitating communication about human rights and ensuring the respect for human rights in information services and systems. This paper surveys the literature at the intersection of LIS and human rights. To begin, an overview of human rights conventions and an introduction to human rights theory is provided. Then the intersections between LIS and human rights are considered. Three central areas of informational human rights-communication, privacy, and intellectual property-are discussed in detail. It is argued that communication rights in particular serve as a central linchpin in the system of human rights.
